Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

Oh, I see. The problem might stem from opinions, ie. the opinion of Shash/Tass vs. opinion of sim author/FFR players/anyone else. Maybe we should "test" out people's suggestions on enhancing the judgement system? Instead of predicting and saying, "that's probably not a good idea" or "I'm not sure how or if that works," why don't we implement other people's ideas temporarily? This way, we can REALLY see if someone's suggestion to improve the judging system works or not. You just might come across a very doable idea, just serendipity. The only problem I see is that there could be a lot of work involved, checking to see if something works and either keeping the idea or discarding it.

And Shash, you have valid points there. It's just that we need to solve the issue of opinion; there needs to be a method to really test out people's proposals.

Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

I wasn't really complaining about playing the files twice. It WOULD double your time playing the files, which I know you do not want to do.

Do you play every single file all the way through? If a file sucks for the first 45 seconds or so, it will most likely suck for the rest of the file. If there's a sim like that, I probably wouldn't even play the whole thing through. Seeing as this is different than a stepmania simfile pack, I can understand playing the file all the way through. You are giving criticism on every file.


Even though you probably wouldn't take my offer... I still have a large amount of free time on my hands every day of every week. I would gladly take a small 10 - 15 file batch (from the main batch you guys play weekly) and filter the good files out from the bad, and send the ones that are worthy of actual judging to you guys. Of course, since you all comment on every single file, I would have to as well. It would help you guys out, and would make you slightly happier to not have to play an extra 30 - 60 minutes of simfiles because of the work that I did. You guys would have to trust me on my judging though, I do know exactly what I'm doing.

I'd be willing to do this anytime, even though you'll probably say that you don't want me to

Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

Thankfully, at least for me, Stepmania is inherently fun enough so that I don't really care about the quality of the file I'm playing, work-wise. Actually, I find it far worse to go through a long, easy, and good file than a short, hard, and terrible file.

Basically, it doesn't really matter how many I have to go through, because it's not really work anyway...so it's not a huge deal.

I think we'll just play all the ones we initially +'d again, to make sure we weren't being retarded or lazy with the + (incog). Wouldn't take much more time at all, really.

Completly Off Current Topic: Is there any chance of a TGWP marathon being made/relased into FFR?

Ok then, stop posting about it and wait.

Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

I could say the same for you, but that would just be rude.

I'm wanting to step something else, but I'm not find anything good on the Blanket page, haha.

No you couldn't. I haven't posted in this thread asking about an update 4 times in less than a week.

Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

If you're suggesting that complaining about the system will cause us to judge your file more strictly, you're just wrong. Look at Hi19 and Rebirth: two of the complainers, and they probably get more files accepted than everyone else combined.

Yea, because they send you more files than all of us combined, right?

I'm not for or against the judging, seeing how you and Tass are usually right when it comes to judging my files. I have no moral problem making steps less boring or syncing a little better. In fact, the ONE qualm I have is with the long waits between updates on the files. It took almost 3 weeks to get feedback for my files, and all I'm saying is that maybe it's not that easy to wait so long, because by then I usually forget most of my files anyway. Like with lolEND; I waited forever, and I can't seem to fix it up anymore...

I guess that's just my problem, though; I don't have a lot of patience for long waits. Do what you need to, though, Shash.

They probably have the a way better percentage of files accepted than most stepfile artists do, as well. It's because they make better quality files, not because they make more of them.

Re: A List of ALL the Songs in the FFR Queue

i still have 20 files to play. Shash likely has more... i'll be done with them in 60-90 minutes. Shash won't be home for a few hours, then he has to play the rest of the batch, then we have to discuss them.

how about this... if there ISN'T an update by... 3am EST wednesday morning... I'll add 5 new public release songs.
